NASVI commenced the second phase of its World Class Cities for All Campaign n February 2010. The campaign is scheduled to end in August just before the start of the Commonwealth Games which take place in New Delhi in September. As in the case of South Africa, the sporting event has been the cause of an intensified attack against street vendors, with evictions and harassment of vendors in the centre of the city and near the sports grounds. There are approximately 300,000 street vendors working in and around the centre of New Delhi.
NASVI has now written a letter to the organisers of the Commonwealth Games and Indian authorities calling on them to set up a body to review the policies towards urban vendors during the Games in order to prevent further evictions and harassment. NASVI Letter to Commonwealth Secretary

There may just be a reason why the boys and girls at 100 Union Square have been so quiet and why the shorts have been working overtime driving this down in a hurry as they cover. I wish this thing traded options in a manner that you wouldn't leave tracks. As far as Insttrader goes, either he is connected to an insider or he just has impecabble timing. Things may start to get interesting here. Going to let the big shorts finish playing their game, but going to get ready to pounce when it becomes obvious they are done and going long.

Houston's Johnson looks to build on best season
HOUSTON -- Houston's Andre Johnson heard the whispers he'd lost a step and that he'd never again be an elite receiver as he struggled through the worst season of his career in 2011.
He didn't let it get him down.
Johnson used it as motivation, and bounced back from last year's 492-yard season with a career-high 1,598 yards receiving this season.
Now he's looking to do more as the Texans prepare for Saturday's playoff game against the Bengals.
His performance this season has left him with Jerry Rice and Marvin Harrison as the only players in NFL history with at least three seasons with 1,500 yards receiving. He also reached the mark in 2008 and 2009.
Johnson has 112 catches this season for his fourth career 100-catch year and his most since finishing with 115 catches in 2008. He was recently selected to his sixth Pro Bowl and has more than 11,000 yards receiving in his career.
Coach Gary Kubiak calls Johnson's season "amazing", and loves the way he leads the Texans by example with his hard work and positive attitude.
"I've been fortunate to be around some special players, but I really count my blessings with this one," Kubiak said. "He's a heck of a player, but a great kid, too."
Johnson has had success against Cincinnati, and is averaging 122.7 yards receiving in his past three games against the Bengals.
He's disappointed that the team has struggled recently, losing three of its past four games. But he believes they'll turn things around on Saturday.
"We just haven't been playing football the way that we know how to play it," Johnson said. "We just have to get back to what we have done earlier during the season. Find that same kind of focus and everybody just lock into what they're doing and just go play football the way we know how to play it."
Johnson got off to a slow start this season after being hampered by minor injuries in training camp. But he has been on a roll in the past seven games, piling up 1,001 yards. Johnson has six 100-yard games this season, including a career-best 273 yards receiving in a win over the Jaguars.
Bengals coach Marvin Lewis doesn't believe it's possible to shut down Johnson, but they do hope to limit his catches.
"He's a fine, fine player and I don't know about shutting (him) down and if you can ... do that because as we know, it's a two-pronged attack there with both the running game and the throwing game that comes off of it," Lewis said. "You really have to play really sound, sound defensive football in order to do that."
Johnson has a lot of respect for the Bengals, and knows Houston will have to play much better than it has been to win on Saturday.
"(They) might be the most talented defense we probably have faced," Johnson said. "They've been playing good football, a lot of good players on the back end, so it'll be a big challenge for us."
Johnson, who is the longest-tenured Texan, waited eight seasons before finally making the playoffs for the first time last season. His second trip will be very similar to the first with Houston hosting Cincinnati in a wild-card game for the second straight season.
"It's not new," Johnson said. "Last year it was new to us. This time it's not new. It's crazy that we're in the same place we were in last year, playing the same team. It'll be big. And we'll be ready to go."
One player it will be new to is quarterback Matt Schaub, who missed last year's playoff run with an injured foot. Much of the blame for Houston's recent slump has been directed at Schaub.
"That's just part of it," Johnson said. "When the team is not playing well, the quarterback is going to take most of the criticism. It's all about how you respond. We have another game Saturday, so however he goes out and plays Saturday that's what people will talk about."

Ted Cruz Just Won The Iowa Caucus. This Is His Radical Agenda For America.
CREDIT: AP Photo/Carlos Osorio
Sen. Ted Cruz won the Iowa caucus with about 28 percent of caucusgoers' votes, edging out Donald Trump by 4 percentage points. His fellow senator, Marco Rubio, received 23 percent.
Cruz was hammered in Iowa for his stance against ethanol subsidies, a major boon to the corn-heavy state, but also netted endorsements from prominent Iowa conservatives like Bob Vander Plaats, an anti-LGBT activist who heads the Iowan organization The FAMiLY Leader.
Though Trump has grabbed headlines for his racist and bombastic rhetoric, the senator from Texas holds some of the most extreme policy ideas in the race. Here are some of the key policies Iowa Republicans have endorsed with their ballots tonight:
Women's Health
Cruz is staunchly anti-abortion and has worked in Texas to make it harder for women to receive abortions. As solicitor general of the state, he defended a federal law that bans partial birth abortion. He has helped lead the Senate crusade to defund Planned Parenthood and he has also said that one of the first things he will do in office is launch a federal investigation into the women's health organization.
The son of a Cuban immigrant, Cruz frequently talks about the need to secure the border and end sanctuary cities. Opponents have targeted him for once supporting "amnesty," but Cruz has never and still does not support a path to citizenship for the country's 11 million undocumented immigrants. And he does not think the United States should accept any Syrian refugees.
Cruz has called for "carpet bombing" and "saturation bombing" regions of Iraq and Syria controlled by ISIS — a tactic that would be a war crime under the Geneva Conventions. After November's terrorist attack in Paris, he called for conducting airstrikes with less concern for civilian casualties.
Cruz, who grabbed headlines with his 21-hour "filibuster" to try to defund Obamacare in 2013, loves to say that he will repeal "every last word of Obamacare." But he doesn't like to talk about what he would do when millions of Americans lose their coverage. Instead, he repeats the false claim that Obamacare has raised premiums and caused millions to lose their part-time jobs. If Cruz were to be elected president, millions of Americans would lose their health insurance — and he doesn't have a plan to stop it.
Climate Change
Cruz is the worst denier of all the climate change-denying Republican candidates. He refuses to agree with the 97 percent of climate scientists who agree that the planet is warming, instead choosing to cite discredited satellite data. Cruz has also introduced legislation that would expand oil and gas drilling, approve the Keystone XL pipeline, prevent the federal government from regulating fracking, and curtail EPA regulations.
Gun Control
Cruz has an A+ rating from the National Rifle Association. He frequently holds Second Amendment rallies and speaks about how you can only "stop bad guys by using our guns." And he loves to spread the conspiracy theory that the government is trying to take away people's guns. In Congress, he has helped to lead the defense of gun rights and helped to vote down gun legislation year after year.
LGBT Rights
Cruz is campaigning on a promise of ignoring or overturning the Supreme Court's ruling legalizing same-sex marriage nationwide. Cruz has also spoken out strongly against granting equal rights to transgender people, and has opposed laws that would protect LGBT employees from workplace discrimination. He has received endorsements from several anti-LGBT religious organizations.

Recent reviews
2.8 /5 from 94 reviews
Information says restuarant on premises but is not a Howard Johnsons as others we saw, had only a DQ, but because of this did not offer continental breakfast. People in close room out drinking in parking lot until late, noisy.
I changed rooms 3 times due to AC, toilet and coffee pot not working
Horrible, I paid way to much for a bad location, dirty and smelly rooms. Didn't get what was promoted online, pet fee was charged, said included online, no microwave or refrig, though promoted on line. No breakfast. Would never stay here or at another Howard Johnsons again. This was a $40 a night stay not the much higher rate they charged.
This hotel and hotel room failed to live up to my extremely low expectations for a hotel. It stank, there were mystery stains on the walls and carpet, two of the light fixtures had light bulbs that did not work, the light in the bathroom was dim for the first ten minutes it was on and it suddenly flipped to full brightness. The bed was extremely uncomfortable. This hotel is also a gas station / truck stop / convenience store and is also a Dairy Queen restaurant. The whole establishment was run-down and dirty. Again, my threshold for satisfaction for hotels is fairly low. I wouldn't return to this place.
I paid thru hotels.com and the hotel took my card for incidentals now the hotel has charged me for two nights after i left
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

Wine competitions have received tremendous amounts of criticism, whether it's from unreliable results, results that seem odd, and results that the experts don't like. Or, as the co-author of a study of competition failings told me, "Consumers should disregard results from wine competitions, because it ?s a matter of luck whether a wine gets a gold medal."
Can wine competitions fix these problems and become more reliable? This is especially relevant given the recession, when wineries reduced the number of competitions they entered. This has led to a shakeout in competitions, and those that don't adapt to the new conditions, where wineries want more value for their entry fees, won't make it. I can't emphasize this enough: Wine competitions are at a crossroads, where their results are increasingly irrelevant to consumers and less important to ever more wineries. The millions of people who buy Cupcake Red Velvet probably don't even know competitions exist.
Hence the need to make the results more statistically valid, and the Wine Curmudgeon's five suggestions, based on more than a decade of judging, to do that — after the jump: Continue reading

Sex, Drugs, and Punk Rock: Confessions of a 1980s Girl
Love Belly, Huntington Beach, California, 2011
February-March 1987
I didn't know what was expected of me.
I didn't know what to tell my dad.
How could I give him directions to save me.
I didn't want to make him mad.
I didn't want to get into trouble with him.
So I decided not to call him.
That was my last decision.
He decided to kiss me on the couch.
I sat there scared to death.
He decided we should go to "bed".
I was praying for sleep.
He wore just boxers.
I think I wore a t-shirt.
He decided to kiss me some more. He decided to lay on top of me.
I told him I was still a virgin.

In 1985, a teenage girl in Orange County ran away from home. She stayed away for one night and came back to her mother, who gave her a camera "as a coming home present." Thirty years later, that young woman has grown to become photographer Deanna Templeton, but the camera continues to be the thread that ties her to her past as a passionate, punk-loving adolescent from suburbia.

The present invention relates to a new and improved method of fabricating a sabot projectile, especially an arrow projectile, comprising a projectile body, a sabot formed of a metal alloy and a plastic jacket, and furthermore, pertains to a new and improved construction of sabot projectile fabricated according to the inventive method.
Sabot projectiles, also referred to in the art as subcaliber projectiles, are used in armor-piercing weapons having extremely high ammunition velocity, also referred to as hypervelocity armor-piercing sabots.
With a state-of-the-art projectile of this type, as the same has been disclosed in Swiss Pat. No. 512,719, segments of a sabot are arranged about a projectile needle or arrow. These segments are held together radially by means of a guide band and a sealing band. Between the sabot and the projectile arrow there is arranged an entrainment element for transmitting the forces in axial direction. This entrainment element comprises, for instance, a ring composed of a number of elements and engages both in a groove of the projectile arrow or needle and also in a groove provided at the sabot.
With such type projectile the preparatory work for the injection molding of a plastic jacket is extremely time-consuming, and therefore, is unfavorable for any rational and priceworthy mass or series production of the projectile. Thus, the segments of the sabot, the projectile arrow and the entrainment elements must be assembled together and, by means of a special device which holds together such parts, placed into an injection mold. It is therefore possible that during assembly or joining together of the sabot, projectile arrow and entrainment elements, individual parts will become lost, particularly since, with this heretofore known projectile, joints between the segments of the projectile are sealed by ledges or strips against the throughflow of propellant gases. The ledges are inserted into grooves cut into the segments and directed transversely with respect to the lengthwise axis of the projectile.
According to another heretofore known projectile of this type, as disclosed in Swiss Pat. No. 536,481, the projectile body protrudes, by means of its rear portion, into a sleeve-shaped projection of the sabot. In the rear portion of the projectile body, there are machined circumferential grooves. In order to secure the sabot at the projectile body there are provided dogs or cams which engage into the circumferential grooves of the projectile body. These dogs or cams are produced by a punch which radially impacts against the sleeve-shaped projection of the sabot. The punch forces material of the sabot, at a number of locations, into the circumferential or peripheral grooves.
With such projectile, there is needed a special working operation for attachment of the projectile body at the sabot. By the same token, also a device must be provided for producing the dogs or cams from the material of the projection of the sabot. However, since these dogs or cams only can engage at a number of places along the circumference of the projectile body at such projectile body, the major part of the circumferential grooves does not contribute to the transmission of the forces between the sabot and the projectile body. The projectile body, fabricated from a heavy metal, unnecessarily experiences a weight reduction by virtue of such continuous grooves, which, in turn, reduces the effectiveness of the projectile.
Therefore, with the foregoing in mind, it is a primary object of the present invention to provide a new and improved method of manufacturing a sabot projectile and an improved sabot projectile produced by such method, which is not associated with the aforementioned drawbacks and limitations of the prior art proposals.
Another and more specific object of the invention aims at providing a new and improved method of fabricating a sabot projectile which is extremely suitable for mass or series production.
Yet a further significant object of the present invention aims at a novel method of fabricating a sabot projectile and a sabot projectile produced by such method, wherein the fabrication costs can be reduced, while adapting the production technique so that it is readily suitable for mass production.
Apart from the foregoing objectives the invention enables realization of still further advantages. More specifically, since the drive connection between the sabot and the projectile body is produced during molding of the sabot, there are markedly reduced the requirements as concerns the accuracy of the region of the projectile body and the sabot which produce the drive connection, without there occurring any axial play. Particularly when fabricating an arrow projectile this feature of the invention enables that, the location at the projectile arrow or needle, where it should be drive connected with the sabot, can be provided quite far forward at the sabot projectile.
After the molding operation the sabot and the projectile body constitute a single piece which can be inserted into a plastic injection mold.
The volume changes arising at the sabot, following the molding operation, during its cooling, ensure that the sabot, in its cold state, tightly or snugly encloses the projectile body. In the case of arrow projectiles, fired from rifled tubes or barrels, this feature constitutes a further advantage inasmuch as there is no longer possible any radial play between the projectile body or projectile arrow and the sabot, and thus, there is appreciably reduced the danger of there occurring any imbalance. This, in turn, means that there is lesser loading of the projectile arrow or needle, by forces acting laterally with respect to the direction of movement of the projectile. This again, in turn, permits increasing the degree of slimness or slenderness of the projectile needle or arrow, which is noticable by virtue of the increased effectiveness of the projectile.
A further advantage resides in the fact that, the recesses or machined portions, which must be provided for attachment of the sabot at the projectile body, need not extend over the entire circumference of the projectile body. These recesses are only needed to a degree such that they have a counter-element at the sabot, with which they can collectively form a positive connection free of play. Consequently, there is avoided the need to unnecessarily provide recesses which reduce the weight of the projectile body. Again, this leads to increased effectiveness of the projectile.
For instance, instead of providing continuous grooves as attachment locations for the sabot, it is possible to machine, such as by milling, non-circular profiles, also referred to as polygon profiles or sectional shapes, in the projectile body. In contrast to projectile needles or arrows having conventional recesses, in the case of projectile needles or arrows which are processed in this manner, there is increased the critical rotational speed, which, in the case of arrow projectiles, fired from spin tubes, is of advantage.
Now in order to implement these and still further objects of the invention, which will become more readily apparent as the description proceeds, the method for the manufacture of a sabot projectile according to the invention, especially an arrow projectile, containing a projectile body, a sabot formed of a metal alloy and a plastic jacket, is manifested by the features that the sabot is directly molded at the projectile body in a first mold, and that in a second mold the plastic jacket is molded at the projectile body and the sabot.
As already alluded to above, the invention also concerns a novel sabot projectile produced according to the aforementioned method aspects. At the projectile body and at the sabot there are provided positively interengaging holder means which coact with one another free of play.
The invention will be better understood and objects other than those set forth above, will become apparent when consideration is given to the following detailed description thereof. Such description makes reference to the annexed drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view through a sabot projectile, shown here as an arrow projectile, the section being taken along the line I--I of FIG. 2;
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view through the projectile of FIG. 1, taken substantially along the line II--II thereof;
FIG. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view illustrating a simplified showing of a mold for a sabot; and
FIG. 4 is a longitudinal sectional view, in a simplified illustration, through a mold for a plastic jacket.
Describing now the drawings, according to the showing of FIG. 1 there is illustrated a sabot or arrow projectile, fabricated according to the inventive method, and formed in the following manner:
A projectile needle--sometimes referred to as a projectile arrow--or a projectile body 1 is surrounded by a sabot 2 and a plastic jacket 3. At its front end the plastic jacket 3 carries a ballistic hood 7. The projectile extends rearwardly into a cartridge sleeve 4 or equivalent structure. As best seen by referring to FIG. 2, the sabot 2 is divided into a number of segments 2a. These segments 2a are interconnected at both ends by means of holders or holder means, constructed as rings 5, as best seen by referring to FIG. 1. The projectile needle or arrow 1 comprises, as its holding or holder means, for instance recesses 6, into which engage holding or holder means formed at the sabot 2, these last-mentioned holder means being constructed as dogs or cams 6a and serve to transmit the forces arising between the sabot 2 and the projectile needle or arrow 1.
By referring to FIG. 2, it will be recognized that the sabot 2 is surrounded by a jacket 3 which is provided, at its circumference or periphery, with numerous recesses or depressions 8 or equivalent structure, contributing to a saving in weight of the sabot projectile. These recesses 8 are distributed such that there are formed a number of reference fracture locations 10 corresponding to the number of segments 2a of the sabot 2.
Now with the benefit of the foregoing, there will be considered hereinafter the inventive method of manufacturing such sabot projectile which essentially comprises the following steps:
Initially, there is formed in conventional fashion a projectile needle or body 1. This projectile needle or body 1 is manufactured from a standard sintered tungsten alloy as is known in this art.
During a second step, there is fabricated the sabot 2. For this end there is needed a multi-part mold 11 as shown in FIG. 3, by way of example. This multi-part mold 11 is structured such that it can receive, as the core, the projectile needle or arrow 1. It is composed of a number of segments, generally indicated by reference character 11a, corresponding to the number of segments 2a of the sabot 2. Each of the segments 11a of the mold or mold assembly 11 is provided, in conventional fashion, with a slide 17 or equivalent structure. These slides or slide members 17, when the mold 11 is closed, are radially shifted against the projectile needle or arrow 1, so that during the molding operation there are formed the gaps 9 (FIG. 2). Upon insertion of the projectile needle or arrow 1 into the mold 11 care must be taken that none of the recesses 6 is located below the contact surface of the slide 17. To mold the sabot 2, a liquid metal alloy is injected into the mold cavity or compartment 13 by means of an opening 12, as best seen by referring to FIG. 3. This liquid metal alloy typically may comprise, by way of example and not limitation, a light metal aluminium pressure cast alloy, such as commercially available from the well-known Swiss firm, Alusuisse company, under its trademark "UNIFONT". During this molding or casting operation there are also molded or cast the recesses 6 and the rings 5. After cooling, the sabot 2 together with the projectile needle or arrow 1 can be removed from the mold 11 as a single or integrated piece.
A further step of the inventive method constitutes fabricating the plastic jacket 3 which may be formed of any suitable plastics material, typically polyamide, such as commercially available from the well-known United States firm, DUPONT company, under its commercial designation or mark "NYLON 6/6". The assembly, composed of the projectile needle or arrow 1 and the sabot 2, again is introduced, as a core, into a second mold 14, as best seen by referring to FIG. 4. The second mold 14 likewise comprises a number of segments, generally indicated by reference character 18a, corresponding to the number of segments 2a of the sabot 2, these segments likewise being provided in conventional manner with the slides or slide members 18 in order to produce at least a part of the recesses or depressions 8. Further slides or slide members 19 are arranged at each segment of the mold 14 so as to be axially insertable. An opening 15 flow communicates a hollow cavity or compartment 16, which is to be filled with the plastic molding material, for instance with the aid of an injection molding apparatus. During molding the gaps or spaces 9 between the individual segments 2a of the sabot 2 are sealed by the plastic jacket 3. After the subsequent cooling of the jacket 3 there is removed from the mold 14 again a unit composed of the projectile needle or arrow 1, sabot 2 and plastic jacket 3. The rings or ring members 5 now can be split-open or machined-off as by a lathing operation, in order to provide for better detachment of the sabot segments 2a upon exit of the sabot projectile out of the firing weapon barrel or tube, and the hood 7 and tail stabilizing fins 30 then can be subsequently mounted.
While there are shown and described present preferred embodiments of the invention, it is to be distinctly understood that the invention is not limited thereto, but may be otherwise variously embodied and practised within the scope of the following claims. Accordingly,

Publisher's Description
You know your Goliath. You recognize his walk, the thunder of his voice.
He taunts you with bills you can't pay, people you can't please, habits you can't break, failures you can't forget, and a future you can't face. But just like David, you can face your giant, even if you aren't the strongest, the smartest, the best equipped, of the holiest.
David. You could read his story and wonder what God saw in him. His life has little to offer the unstained, straight-A saint. He fell as often as he stood, stumbled as often as he conquered. But for those who know the sound of Goliath, David gives this reminder:
Focus on giants -- you stumble; focus on God -- your giants tumble.
If you're ready to face your giants, let his story inspire you. The same God who helped him will help you.

I'm currently working on a concept for a reverse proxy to basically relay responses and requests between the user and an otherwise invisible website. So basically the user goes to a site, let's say www.myproxyportal.com, where it is possible to access a website (in an iframe) in the webserver's intranet which isn't made public (for example internal.myproxyportal.com).
I've been working on a solution where I translate request objects to the desired location and return that response to the website. Works great, except for stuff like CSS links, IMG's, etc. I can do the translation of course, but then the link would go to internal.myproxyportal.com/css/style.css and this will never work from the outside.
How to approach such a thing?
Are there any out of the box solutions maybe?
EDIT: I found this, which is very similar to what I have written so far, but it also lacks support for external images, css, javascript, etc.

Secular evolution is one of the key routes through which galaxies evolve along the Hubble sequence. Not only does the disc undergo morphological and kinematic changes, but a pre-existing classical bulge may also be dynamically changed by the secular processes driven primarily by the bar. We study the influence of a growing bar on the dynamical evolution of a low-mass classical bulge that might be present in galaxies like the Milky Way. Using self-consistent high-resolution N-body simulations, we study how an initially isotropic non-rotating small classical bulge absorbs angular momentum emitted by the bar. The basic mechanism of this angular momentum exchange is through resonances and a considerable fraction of the angular momentum is channelled through Lagrange point (−1:1) and inner Lindblad resonance (ILR) (2:1) orbits. In the phase of rapid dynamical growth, retrograde non-resonant orbits also absorb significant angular momentum. As a result of this angular momentum gain, the initially non-rotating classical bulge transforms into a fast rotating, radially anisotropic and triaxial object, embedded in the similarly fast rotating boxy bulge formed from the disc. Towards the end of the evolution, the classical bulge develops cylindrical rotation. By that time, its inner regions host a 'classical bulge–bar' whose distinct kinematics could serve as direct observational evidence for the secular evolution in the galaxy. Implications of these results are discussed in brief.

Frankincense has helped me a lot with my joint pain in my finger. The doc said it was the beginning of arthritis and gave me lotions and painkillers. None worked. After 3 days Frankincense, I was able to bend my finger again. The pain does come back but I find that massaging the finger 2 times a week with one drop makes it as if the pain was gone.
Smells luxurious

I add this to my face oil routine - frankinscence oil is believed to encourage skin regeneration. So in time it can help with both wrinkles and age spots. I can't say how it works on its own as I also am using sunscreens and more facial and hand care products, but I do love the luxurious smell. Spicy and sweet with just a hint of muskiness.
I use this daily
